My cousin chose one for my dad's funeral a few years ago and i cannot remember what it was. I know that may sound terrible but forgive me. It was obviously a very trying time. Any help would be great.

The song played at my father's funeral a few years ago had a lot of strings at the beginning and I thought it may have been by Lonestar or maybe Diamond Rio but I have not been able to find it.

A good one that was played during a slideshow during my grandpa's funeral was "There You'll Be" by Faith Hill. It's that song from Pearl Harbor. It's country so it might fit what you need, maybe not the one you were thinking of but maybe it will work...?
There You'll Be Lyrics
by Faith Hill
When I think back
On these times
And the dreams
We left behind
I'll be glad 'cause
I was blessed to get
To have you in my life
When I look back
On these days
I'll look and see your face
You were right there for me
[CHORUS:]
In my dreams
I'll always see your soul
Above the sky
In my heart
There always be a place
For you for all my life
I'll keep a part
Of you with me
And everywhere I am
There you'll be
Well you showed me
How it feels
To feel the sky
Within my reach
And I always
Will remember all
The strength you
Gave to me
Your love made me
Make it through
Oh, I owe so much to you
You were right there for me
[Repeat chorus]
'Cause I always saw in you
My light, my strength
And I want to thank you
Now for all the ways
You were right there for me
You were right there for me
For always
By the way, the song "When I Get Where I'm Going" that was mentioned before is by Dolly Parton but not Kenny Chesney. It's Brad Paisley that sings with her....

"I'm Movin On" by Rascal Flatts
I've dealt with my ghosts and I've faced all my demons
Finally content with a past I regret
I've found you find strength in your moments of weakness
For once I'm at peace with myself
I've been burdened with blame, trapped in the past for too long
I'm movin' on
I've lived in this place and I know all the faces
Each one is different but they're always the same
They mean me no harm but it's time that I face it
They'll never allow me to change
But I never dreamed home would end up where I don't belong
I'm movin' on
I'm movin' on
At last I can see life has been patiently waiting for me
And I know there's no guarantees, but I'm not alone
There comes a time in everyone's life
When all you can see are the years passing by
And I have made up my mind that those days are gone
I sold what I could and packed what I couldn't
Stopped to fill up on my way out of town
I've loved like I should but lived like I shouldn't
I had to lose everything to find out
Maybe forgiveness will find me somewhere down this road
I'm movin' on
I'm movin' on
I'm movin' on
